OK, now that I have my lights properly responding to Kaleidescape's play, intermission, credits, and stop triggers... it's not ideal when you have a script that plays scenes/songs from multiple movies. The lights come up after each scene, then fade down again as the next scene starts.

There should be a way to set an option for scripts to only send the play trigger at the start of the whole script, the "pause" any time the script is paused", and then "stop" only when the entire script is finished.

That way a script can act like it's own show/movie, not cause crazy lights ramping up and down as you play one script that shows off your favorite demo scenes/songs.

Hi @josh,
this has been discussed recently in this thread. According to @MikeKobb it´s supposed to be a bug in script playback.

Oops. You’d think I’d know my way around this place!

But I’ll leave it here for now in case it’s more relevant as a feature request than a bug.
